Leadership Coaching, Life Coaching, Relationship Coaching, Success Coaching
Interested?Welcome to Ilumina Life Coaching. I’m Gabriela, and I know firsthand how it feels to want more out of life, yet feel stuck or out of alignment with who you truly are. My own journey through setbacks, reinvention, and transformation inspired me to help other women reconnect with their authentic self and get unstuck.
I offer a modern, proven approach to personal transformation through Identity-Based Coaching® and the Stuck Story Coaching Method®. The real reason most people don’t achieve their goals isn’t lack of willpower—it’s living out of sync with their authentic self. Instead of focusing on traditional goal setting or habit change, my coaching blends narrative psychology, neuroscience, and positive psychology to help you rewrite the stories keeping you stuck.
With my guidance, accountability, and compassionate support you'll become the woman who creates her own destiny and confidently leads the kind of life she really wants and deserves.

My Clients
MIRELLA'S JOURNEY TO EMPOWERED SINGLE MOTHERHOOD
"I used to define myself as 'just a struggling single mom in my 40s'. Through Gabriela's identity-based coaching, I discovered I was so much more. Now I confidently introduce myself as a resilient leader, both in my career and at home. My transformation wasn't just about managing life and relationships better – it was about seeing myself differently. When my identity shifted from 'surviving' to ‘empowered,' everything else naturally followed. Now I'm confidently pursuing my goals, in a healthy co-parenting relationship, and open to love again."
ALMA’S HEALTH AND MINDSET EVOLUTION
"For years, my identity was wrapped up in failed attempts at health goals. I was 'the person who couldn't stick to anything'. Working with Gabriela, I didn't just change my habits – I transformed how I saw myself. I became someone who makes powerful choices, someone who follows through. The weight loss and energy boost? Those were natural outcomes of my new identity as a woman who prioritizes her wellbeing. The old thinking patterns that kept me stuck for years simply don't fit who I am anymore. I'm feeling unbelievably empowered—and I lost the weight!"

NATALY’S FUTURE-SELF ALIGNMENT
“On the surface, I had it all together, but deep down, I felt an uncertainty when I thought about my future. With Gabriela’s coaching, I didn't just create a roadmap – I discovered who I needed to become to achieve my dreams. My transformation started when I stopped asking 'What should I do?' and started asking 'Who am I becoming?' Now, my decisions and actions naturally align with my future self. This isn't about having a plan—it's about becoming the woman who confidently creates her destiny."

Professional Experience
I help high-achieving career women over 40 who are ready to break free from feeling stuck and step into the next era of their lives—on their own terms. At Ilumina Life Coaching, my mission is to empower you to reconnect with your authentic self, let go of limitations, and design a life that feels truly abundant, confident, and fulfilling.
My approach is different from traditional coaching. As a Certified Identity-Based Life Coach, I guide you through a modern, structured process that focuses on transforming your self-concept—not just your habits. Together, we’ll uncover who you want to become, rewrite the stories that keep you playing small, and build the mindset and clarity needed to thrive in every area of your life.
After overcoming my own setbacks and rediscovering my purpose through identity-based coaching, I founded Ilumina Life Coaching to help other accomplished women live intentionally, lead confidently, and create lives they genuinely love. I believe feeling stuck is not a sign of failure—it’s an invitation to realign with your true self and rise.
My Approach
Transformation starts with identity. I help you clarify who you want to become, then support you in building the mindset, confidence, and intentional strategies to make that vision real. My process is structured, evidence-based, and deeply personal—rooted in the belief that you already have everything you need to create a life you love.
